Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLayla's face had not changed much from when she was a teenager. Only now, it had a touch of maturity.
However, Eric knew that Layla was not that mature. This was because Layla had always stayed with her parents, so she had always been under their protection. She was a true heiress living a pampered life.
A person like her would have a more innocent character. At the stime, her ability to face challenges would be worse than an ordinary person's.
"Are your parents urging you to find someone already?" Eric asked. "I doubt your father would want you to find someone, right?" "Dad hopes that I will stay single forever," laughed Layla. "You know what type of a person he is. He thinks that the greatest men in the world are all in our family. Outside men are inferior, and so, he hopes that I will never enter into a relationship or get married. He thinks men will hurt me." Eric smiled. "It's not strange for your father to have that thought. If I have a daughter as adorable as you, I will surely hope that she doesn't get married this early either." "But I'm almost twenty-five! I'm no longer a child. Even my younger brother is an adult!" Layla held the straw and drank sfruit juice. "Do you have any nice men that you know? Introduce them to me!" Eric chuckled lightly. "Get your parents to introduce them to you. If other people were to introduce men to you, I highly doubt that those men will pass your parents' standards." "Mom doesn't care that much about whether I get into a relationship or not. Dad wantsto work hard. Mom says that I can enter into a relationship if I want to, and I listen to her." The waiter served them their food. Layla placed her fruit juice by the side.

I'm sure you could eat more, right?" Eric shook his head gently. "I can only do so once I truly retire." "Then, you should retire quickly! It's torture not being able to eat anything you want to eat." Layla wolfed down her food before realizing the reason for her lack of interest in the entertainment industry. "I know why I didn't go into the entertainment industry. It's because I previously saw the vlogs of female celebrities. They are either working out, working, or on a diet. I don't want to suffer like them." Eric said, "Hmm, after all, the camera adds ten pounds." Layla said, "Haha. Once you've retired, we could meet up for meals often!" Eric said, "Aren't you trying to look for a boyfriend? You should be out looking for one so that you can enter into a proper relationship." "Are you saying I won't be able to ask you out for meals once I have a boyfriend?" Layla said in dismay.
"Aren't you afraid that your boyfriend would be jealous? If your boyfriend has meals with other ladies, won't you be jealous?" Eric chuckled. "You'll know it once you're in a relationship." "Tsk! I'll just take my boyfriend along when we go out! Can't I do that?" et Layla glared at him. "You sure overthink things. We have known each other for so many years. Even if we have a meal alone, no one would think anything of it." S Eric was amused by her childish behavior. "I'll go back to see if there is anyone suitable. If there are, I'll introduce them to you." Layla was stunned. "Are you really planning on introducing men to me?" "Didn't you just askto introduce them to you? know quite a few young men, but they are all in the industry.don't know whether you would mind or not." Eric was in the entertainment industry. The people that he was in contact with were all good-looking people. Since he had been in the industry for a long tand was a veteran, there were many members of the younger generations who fawned over him.
"I..." Layla was feeling a little down, but she was embarrassed to say so. "Then, introduce toanyone who you think might be suitable! It's just a relationship, not marriage. My parents won't have an opinion about it." "Hmm." Eric drank scoffee. He mulled over her comment as he sipped his coffee. "Even if it is a simple relationship, don't be too casual about it. Get to know each other first. Don't trust easily." "Can't I trust the people that you introduce to me?" Layla asked.
Eric said, "If you are askingto introduce a person whom I know well, and who might be compatible, then I don't have anyone. The only people I know who might becompatible with you are the people I have known for only a couple of years. But, I still think that you should get someone else to introduce men to you. It's hard to get along with someone who is not in the scircle."
